...Cherry — Scsi he-ff» _
During the late 19805, Cherry grew rapidly and moved into areas it believed ﬁt its basic
business plan: buy or clcvclop an asset, such as pipeline or power plant, and then expand
it by building a wholesale or retail business around the asset. During the period from
1986 to l993, we are tolcl. approximately 60% of Cherry's earnings were generated from
business in which Clterry was not engaged ten years earlier, and some 30% to 40% were
generated from business in which Cherry was not engaged ﬁve years earlier.
Much of this growth involved large initial capital investments that were not
expected to generate signiﬁcant earnings or cash ﬂow in the short term. While Cherry
believed this investmrznt would be beneﬁcial over a period oftime, they placed
immediate pressure on Cherry‘s balance sheet. Cherry already had a substantial debt loan
A funding the new investment by issuing additional debt was unattractive. Alternatively,
funding the investment by issuing additional equity was also unattractive.
One perceived solution to this problem was to ﬁnd outside investors willing to
enter arrangement that would enable Cherry to retain risks it believed it could manage
effectively, and the related rewards. Thesejoint investments typically were structured as
separate entities to \'-'ltit;li (jiicrry and other investorr; crmtributccl assets or other

Chapter I Introduction Learning to read is a complex task easily accomplished by most students. One of the major educational concerns is ensuring success for those students who have difficulty learning to read. (Anderson, Heibert, Scott, & Wilkinson, 1985; Adams, 1990; Allington & Walmsley, 1995; Fountas & Pinnell, 1996; Routman, 1996; Bond & Dykstra, 1997; Graves & Dykstra, 1997; Readence & Barone, 1997; Duffy & Hoffman, 1999). Some envision reading as a task the students teach themselves individually with the reflective support of others (Smith, 1988, 1990; Clay, 1991a; Lyons, Pinnell & DeFord, 1993;). From the perspective of ensuring success, learner initiative or independence is essential for the process of learning to read to develop smoothly. Some students who initially have difficulty in learning to read do help themselves by “bootstrapping”(Stanovitch, 1986), but research suggests that most students who do not learn to read in the primary grades continue to find reading difficult throughout their lives, if they are successful at all (Chromsky, 1972; Juel, 1988; Clay, 1990; Hiebert, 1991). A conceptual shift offered by Watson supports the current study described here: “The problem is not student learning; it is that educators and researchers have not discovered how to teach all students yet” (B. Watson, Feedback on a Reading Recovery lesson, personal communication, Reston, Virginia, 1992). If independence is essential for learning, then fostering that...
